Class Descriptions
"It is only when the correct practice is followed for a long time, without interruptions and with a quality of positive attitude and eagerness, that it can succeed."
- Patanjali, Yoga-Sutras
Flow yoga is a mixture of meditation, breath-work and energizing movement. Class begins with gentler movements to warm up the body, then moves into progressively more challenging flowing sequences. These may include standing poses, balances, inversions and peak poses. The classes tend to end with slower, deeper stretches, and often floor-based asana practice. The breath synchronization found in flow yoga maximizes the positive benefits of the practice, turning it into a moving meditation.
Slow Flow Restorative Yoga opens and closes with restorative and yin poses, and flows through seated and standing poses. Poses range from gentle to more challenging and are practiced with stable, self-centering energy. The slow pace of this class allows for emphasis on correct alignment and maintaining balanced even breathing. This style builds strength, stability and postural integrity. Suitable for all levels.
The mission of this class is to help prevent memory related diseases and help individuals live a high quality of life through yoga, reiki and meditation. Each week, we will study different parts of the Four Pillars of Brain Longevity and then practice slow flow yoga. This style of practice promotes peace and quiet in the mind and body, preparing you for meditation. Each practice will end with a medical mind body meditation called Kirtan Kriya also known as Brain Aerobics.

An invigorating flow class that blends upbeat rhythmic and modern folk music with fluid, dance-like transitions between postures. While the class offered is of medium-advanced skill level, all practitioners are welcome to join and flow with what is comfortable to them.
Astanga is a dynamic and athletic form of hatha yoga, with a fixed order of postures. It is rooted in vinyasa, the flowing movements between postures, with a focus on energy and breath. While it is a very physical practice, it also promotes mental clarity and inner peace. Variations and hands-on assists are offered throughout the class.
Yin Yoga uses gentle long held postures practiced with an attitude of compassionate acceptance to awaken the more yin parts of our physical, emotional and spiritual selves. It is a healing practice that leaves the practitioner feeling rested, grounded and peaceful. Practitioners often use props such as bolsters, blankets and blocks, to support the body in a restorative way. All levels. No experience necessary.
